Some koa haole was removed at the site of the wild individuals by the state, but detailed monitoring was not conducted to determine the results. In addition, survivorship was higher in sites where koa haole was removed prior to reintroduction that the control sites with no removal.

Access to the site is limited because it is within the Hawaii Army National Guard lands, and hikers must have permission to get past a guard station to access the hiking trail that goes past the wild population.

UCI completed this task through controlled crosses of plants cultivated in their greenhouse. Although the seeds in storage are F1 generation, they are the best material available, since there are only 2 plants remaining in the wild. This task may need to be reinitiated if the viability of the seeds stored at the CCRT Seed Storage Lab declines.

This task was attempted unsuccessfully in the 1990's. It is believed that it failed largely due to extreme drought conditions during those years. Additional reintroductions have survived, but may need augmentation to reach viable levels.
